It does make some fans angry. It doesn’t make me angry, I just always thought senshi/soldier sounded much more awesome. I remember back when I first discovered that sailor scouts were sailor soldier in Japan and thought that was amazing. ;)
What’s funny is how many people hate “Scout” when it really is a pretty decent translation of the word, especially for a 90’s dub and especially considering “Guardian” now, since a Scout can be a sentinel or one who watches over an area.

I used soldier for the old anime and guardian for the live action. But at this point guardian has so completely replaced soldier I tend to go with that. I think there’s a good case for using soldier for older stuff.

Warrior is old school. I remember some old Arctic Animation fan subs which used that.

When speaking of the original series I will always use Soldier though.
By the way, when exactly did it switch from soldier to Guardian? Was it with PGSM or before?

Though when I talk about the dub, as I am here, I tend to use “Sailor Scouts”. Which I forgot to do! So I will correct the post.

So let’s call a spade a spade, for goodness’ sake.
